Submission + - Yoga site gets patent for pointing a 3-foot high camera at a person (yogainternational.com)
Lirodon writes: The online yoga class site YogaGlo has been granted a patent for filming yoga classes by placing the camera at the back of a crowd with an aisle in the center (and the teacher at the end of said aisle). While the patent was rejected several times by the USPTO for prior art, somehow they accepted it after Yogaglo added the requirement that the camera have "a height of about three feet". A non-profit group thinks this patent is unenforcable, however, citing Yogaglo's own videos as prior art.
